robot cars !
« on: November 05, 2007, 01:13:32 PM »

well this seems to be a huge step forward in my book.

A driverless car called Boss has scooped a $2m prize in a Californian race for robotic vehicles.
 
Boss shared the road with human drivers to simulate traffic

Boss successfully drove around an urban environment, avoiding other cars, and covering 60 miles (85km) in less than six hours, all without any human control.

there's a  chance in 15 years you won't be allowed a bike on the road, step back and take a good look at all the restrictions now, things are getting out of order real fast. the UK is following the US, no longer the land of the free.
